if you want to avoid having to enter a password everytime at startup, select "quick logon"įor step 5, leave the recycle bin full and just reboot

make sure "Log on to Windows NT Domain" is NOT checked double-click "Client for Microsoft Networks" under the components list In step 2, set Primary NL to "Client for Microsoft Networks" instead of "Windows Logon". Also, make a copy of your system.ini file and throw that in the recycle bin as well.
To be safe, move the results to your recycle bin. I find that hard to believe since Windows will create a "l" file even if you never enter a username or password.įollow the same procedure above substituting the following:įirst of all, make sure you are searching for *.pwl EXACTLY including the *. The lines we took out of System.INI were just "pointers" to PWL files on your C: drive, which you said didn't exist. That's it! Every other change in the registry could have been restored by simply undoing steps 1 & 2. Look, my suggestion altered the System.INI file and asked that you delete PWL files. IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE NOW THAT YOU MENTION A PEER-TO-PEER NETWORK!!

If worst comes comes to worst and no-one knows how to do this I will go through my harddrive delete almost all of the stuff (programs) burn my important files, then change the setting to "all users use the same settings) and start from scratch. Once I can figure out how to have the preferences and settings, etc as the way I have them now, by either pressing OK Or CANCEL, then I will turn off the "users can customise their settings.Īny help? So hence, there must be a file with all the settings listed (an.ini file or something that can be replaced). Fair enough to say that the system will always have a special reserve file which can't be tampered with for safe mode startup, but the profile (pressing CANCEL at startup), could have been configured the way I have set every thing up with the username. And can you just overright the other file with the file from my settings? And is there a system file which lists all the default settings. Is there a system file which lists all the settings that my username has created (ie-startmenu, taskbar, background, resolution, icons, sounds, themes, my documents folders, etc.). There must have been someone in the Microsoft Team that thought that if someone has set up their computer the way I have, by just pressing OK that the configuration can be copied to "the default system setting" as Mr Fixit implied. RE: ALWAYS ASKING FOR A PASSWORD BUT I WANT TO KEEP MY SETTINGS xkjdhdg (TechnicalUser) 30 Jan 02 22:42įirst of all, thankyou to everyone who has been trying to help with my problem, but still nothinh seems to work you all sound like you know what you're talking about, but the problem remains. So with that in mind, does anyone have any comments or suggestions. My computer runs Windows ME, and the other computer runs Windows 98.
I have set it up that way, I can remove the password if that might help. The only time the computers want a password is when I open the Neighbourhood Network and then open the other computer. I have this computer networked as a peer-to-peer network for file sharing and printer sharing, but the other computer doesn't need a password to connect but mine does.
Now also I should have mentioned this before. I want my (Nate) profile to be my only profile. pwl file, you said I should have a least one, but none were found in the search of my C: drive. I had to use scanreg /restore to get my old profile back. FOZZYBEAR-Your suggestion just led to my computer asking for a password, then asking for it againĬdogg- Your suggestion killed my (NATE) username and so I would have had to start all over again by re-setting all of my settings.
